    Sue McCabe on Pediatric Sleep: Comfort, Complexity, and Thermoregulation

    This conversation with sleep specialist Sue McCabe will completely shift how you think about sleep. We talk about why sleep isn't just a nighttime problem, it's a 24-hour concern woven through every aspect of your therapy outcomes. Sue introduces her C-word framework: Comfort (finding what's "just right, right now"), Complexity, Culture, Collaboration, Community, Capacity, Connections, Communication, and Clocks. We explore the types of questions that surface the real issues underlying sleep issues before throwing behavioral strategies at families. The difference between a circadian rhythm disorder and insomnia, why knowing that a child is spending 6 hours running around the park helps you solve a sleep issue and how warm feet are essential for sleep onset (yes, your mom was right). We explore difficulties with sleep in a variety of diagnoses (CP, autism, ADHD, vision impairment, trauma history). Sue introduces the frameworks, the questions, the resources, and the lens to address sleep into your clinical sessions with confidence.

  2. Dynamic Thinking with Michael Workman and the Bamboo Brace

    Dynamic Thinking with Michael Workman and the Bamboo Brace

    Michael Workman (PT, Bamboo Brace designer, and neurodevelopmental geek with 30 years of floor-time wisdom) joined me for a fascinating deep dive into the hidden power of such a seemingly simple wearable device for such a seemingly simple joint. If you're a therapists who sees the elbows as gateways to whole-body potential, you're going to love what Michael has to say! And if you're a therapist whose mostly thought about the elbow as just a hinge that needs to be stablized between two complex joints, you’re going to be fascinated by how much you can get out of working on the dynamic control of this joint.  Of course we get into a lot of detail about the Bamboo brace itself and even touch on what it takes to bring a therapy product to market, but the real gold in this interview is the deep dive into dynamic bracing, dynamic thinking and dynamic interventions - everything works better when it’s moving. We jump between joints and synergies. We revive the open chain and it’s importance in not only upper limb function, but the development of motor control that must come before the development of strength - and of course we get into the practicalities of using the brace - which kids benefit, when and where. There’s so much to take away from this interview! Enjoy.

  3. A Human First Approach to Seating and Wheelchair Mobility

    ٢٤‏/٠٤‏/٢٠٢٥

    A Human First Approach to Seating and Wheelchair Mobility

    Nobody becomes a pediatric therapists to make children’s lives miserable, or worse, create pain and life limiting boney deformities and yet, there’s a very real possibility that somewhere along your career path, that’s exactly what your suggestions or recommendations might have done. Now this is a confronting thought , but one that needs some airtime, with a little self-reflection and no judgement - certainly not from me, because I’m right there with you. I think it was Maya Angelou who said ‘do the best with the knowledge you have, but when you know better, do better’ which is a lovely quote to live by. With that in mind, this conversation with Sharon Sutherland and Jenn McKee is a not to be missed deep dive into what they call a human first approach to seating and wheelchair mobility, but what I’ll call a holy smokes - our solutions may have been part of the problem here people. Sharon and Jenn share how they support seating and wheelchair mobility with a beautiful human first approach. We discuss real clinical cases and dig into all the tricky bits we constantly run up against as therapists, managing head support and keeping feet on footplates, complex bodies, silent pain, navigating team disagreements and technology shortfalls, getting family buy-in, dynamic systems and pommels. There were so many essential topics we covered that this interview extends waaay over the usual hour. I was going to split it into two parts, but I’ve decided to try out a longer form interview. Please let me know if you like the longer interview - and if, like me, you had a couple of slap the head moments!! There's a ton of additional links and resources for you to grab at https://www.wiredondevelopment.com related to this conversation Enjoy!

  4. Hippotherapy for Physical and Occupational Therapists in Pediatrics

    Hippotherapy for Physical and Occupational Therapists in Pediatrics

    This was such a fun interview for me to do but be warned, once you’ve listened to Jane and Susie explaining the benefits and mechanism of equine assisted therapy, you are going to want to go find yourself a stable with a few horses and get trained in hippotherapy if you’re not already. . I was genuinely blown away by how the the horse can be used to impact motor learning, and how as therapists we can integrate the whole sensory motor experience into our therapeutic goals. This interview will take you on a fascinating journey into hippotherapy - enjoy the ride.

  5. Dystonia and complex disabilities in childhood development with Karen Kanga

    Dystonia and complex disabilities in childhood development with Karen Kanga

    From philosophy student and activist to pioneer in early childhood intervention approaches for therapists, Karen Kangas takes us on a journey of developing clinical excellence. She is an occupational therapists with over 50 years of experience, specializing in pediatrics, seating, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). She has particular knowledge and expertise in working with children with significant disabilities, particularly those with dystonia and dystonic cerebral palsy. Karen beautifully bridges the gap between ‘old school’ hands on approaches and a more contemporary hands-off focus on participation and real-life activities and engagement. We cover seating and positioning, standing, walking and appropriate equipment use, developing clinical skills, the magic of the barrier vest and understanding movement patterns. You'll find links to everything we discussed at https://www.wiredondevelopment.com Enjoy!

  6. The Real State-of-The-Evidence in Pediatric Rehabilitation with James Sulzer

    The Real State-of-The-Evidence in Pediatric Rehabilitation with James Sulzer

    James Sultzer is an academic neurorehabilitation engineer and a father to a child with a significant brain injury. This conversation is a raw look at the real state of the evidene in pediatric neurodisability from the someone who is living through the reality of how it supports families to make incredibly difficult decisions as they seek out the best care for their kids. We move from discussing the value of goal setting and home programs all the way to trying to uncover the fraud and the pseudoscience that parents are navigating everyday. This is a profoundly important conversation that is a must listen for everyone working with families who have children with disabilities. I know you'll get a lot out of it. Enjoy!

  7. An eye opening journey into neuroplasticity with Dr Susan Barry for pediatric OTs and PTs

    An eye opening journey into neuroplasticity with Dr Susan Barry for pediatric OTs and PTs

    When it comes to understanding how the work that we try to do every day in the clinic actually works, this interview with Dr Susan Barry may be one of the most eye-opening interviews I have done so far - excuse the pun. Dr Barry is a a Professor Emeritus of Biological Sciences, Professor Emeritus of Neuroscience and Behavior and (as she calls herself) a recovered Strabismic. Her story of fixing her gaze which started at age 48 gives us unmatched insight how neuroplasticity can be harnessed in every day therapy to drive recovery. WE cover so many topics that are near and dear to my beating therapy heart, and from the value of clinical wisdom and the cautionary tales of over interpreting published research to the importance of not being distracted by the obvious problems you see, but rather understanding the reason behind why you are seeing them. There’s so many nuggets to take away from this interview, you are going to love it - enjoy!
